this is a great place for a soup and sandwhich lunch, and it also does great cakes. however, if you come during lunch time the soup smell can be strong and offputting for coffee drinkers. furthermore, it can get a little noisy at times, but when quieter it's a comfy spot to hang out. free tap water, which i always...

When I go into the city center, it`s a lovely place for a relaxing cup of coffee and a scone etc. I was even able to spread the butter on my cheese scone without demolishing it as often happens in most places.They have a nice selection of food on offer and being local it`s nice to spread the word about...

Really nice food and drink. There is always a good selection of things. The staff are nice too. However it is always quite busy and sometimes a bit noisy.

Have now visited the coffee house a few times and always enjoy it. I have had lunch before with my dad here and the staff are always very friendly. The soups and sandwiches are always amazing. It's also good just for coffee and cake and my friends always love it.

A great little tearoom right in the city centre. Great choice of drinks especially yes and super food. Friendly service, only problem it should be bigger as so popular.

We really really like this venue, quite a crowd of us!! Are regular visitors. Been with friends, family, could take anyone. Relaxed, simple understated classy decor; light and airy. Homemade cakes etc can't be faulted. Coffee great! Don't order a double shot though, I did and I buzzed all day; it's coffee that does the job!! A good read can... More

I've spent a lot of my time on recent visits to Aberdeen searching for somewhere to get genuinely good coffee, and sadly - despite it's name - this is not the place. My flat white was far too big, far too weak, and the milk was clearly scalded. It tasted a lot like the vending machine coffee you used to... More

I went in just to have a quick tea and cake before work and I absolutely loved it! The gentleman that served me was really lovely and fun. The atmosphere was just spot on. I cant wait to go back.
